The Nest

Le meilleur logement qu’on a eu au Sri Lanka. C’était propre, fonctionnel, grand, bien situé, c’était génial ! La famille est adorable, encore merci pour tout <3

Excelente habitación y acomodación. Confortabilidad plena y servicio de comida excepcional. La comida es deliciosa. La amabilidad de toda la familia es espléndida siendo muy atentos y amables. Un muy buen lugar para hacer estadía.

Die Gastfamilie ist einfach ein Traum. Sie helfen bei allem und sind super freundlich. Das Frühstück war ebenfalls super. Immer wieder gerne!

A Very good place for that budget.. 👍👍

I spent 4 nights here. Big and nice room, very friendly family, good price

No WiFi... There is only one fridge in the owners house, so I need to always ask to use the fridge.

Molto accogliente e pulita

Plus qu’un hébergement, une immersion. La famille est adorable et au petit soins ! À 15 min de la plage et du centre

To był najlepszy hotel w jakim byliśmy nie tylko na Sri Lance ale i ogólnie. Właściciele przyjęli nas jak rodzina, obiady i śniadania były niesamowite a gospodarz miał ogromną wiedzę na tematy kulturowe. Można się było dużo dowiedzieć. Nie mogliśmy się rozstać z tym miejscem i na zawsze zapamiętamy ta wspaniałą rodzinę.

Hospitality, service, cleanliness and simplicity

Nothing at all

Breakfast is good.

Price of breakfast is high compared to other places

we’ve had a wonderful stay! the family was super kind and helped us with a lot of information :) they were so welcoming and the breakfast was super delicious!! everything was really clean and comfortable. The location was not really central but really peaceful. Would 100% recommend staying here!!!

no complaints:)

A really nice room and breakfast and the property is run by a lovely family! Recommend it!

an A/C would be nice as it can get really hot in the room at night, even with the fan:)

The owners and their children. They were so nice with my and my boyfriend, they care us in many ways.

I stayed at THE NEST for four nights. I was super satisfied with my room, it was very clean:) The neighbourhood is pretty calm and authentic. To Tangalle Beach I had to walk around 30 minutes and to Silent Beach 45 minutes. For met it wasn’t a huge problem as I like walking;) The owner and his wife are very friendly and welcoming:)

Miss Sahara, the owner was amazing. very welcoming very friendly and always with a smile. The property has clean rooms, no A/C but for us was no bother, solar panel( for the ones that go in cloudy days could mean no hot water). The location is a little complicated to find but still close to everything walking distance so ones you figure the road it’s easy to move around. Overall experience was very pleasant!

The owner is the perfect host, always willing to help. Rooms are spacious and clean, the bed is huge! Parking is available. Close to red beach and the restaurants in the area. Strongly recommended, value for money guaranteed

Nice and helpful staff. 15 min on the beach. The room was good for this price. I recommend it.

Best place to stay in Tangalle :)

The hosts are very friendly and the breakfast is good. Great vfm

The owner is so kind, we had a huge breakfast. I will stay there only if you need a place for 1 night.

The room itself is feels wet, few spots of mold but for that amount of money i am okay with that.

Beautiful place with beautiful people!

Very nice hosts (especially the lady) and good englush

A bit far from beach (20 min walk)

The location was very convenient for my work. Very close to city. secure place

nothing

Best of the best, Udith and his family are the TOP hosts of the whole Sri Lanka. No ifs and buts, if you pass by Tangalle, 100% you take the accommodation in their place. This family goes above and beyond normal customer service. And great vibes only in their place.

Nada. 0.

The property is a nice private room with a nice bathroom - at the back of a family house with separate entrance and key. Providing amazing Sri Lanka breakfast and dinner for cheap prices.

Very peaceful and comfortable place., amazing dinner and breakfast and the family who owns it is super friendly and helpful and welcoming. Could not been better!

Nice experience, very friendly family

The place was great, the room was big and comfortable, the bathroom clean and the location was pretty cool, only 4-5 min from the city centre and so chill there. The staff was superkind and helpful, always asking how to improve your stay. The price was also nice, possibly one of the best relations quality/price in tangalle. Really recommendable

There was a bit of humidity in the rooms.

Nicest and best family in Sri Lanka. Large rooms with great balcony and garden full of coconuts.

Strong smell of mould throughout the room and bathroom. Very hot rooms due to no AC, but to be expected. Continued being bitten by ants throughout the night, making it very hard to sleep.

The room was spacious and clean. The diner was delicious but with a big smile it could have been perfect.

The couple that runs the accommodation are lovely. Very helpful and kind.

The room was very hot. I had a bad experience with a beach boy but that is not the fault of the accommodation. Just be careful if you are a solo female in Tangalle and watch out for the beach boys. Try to make sure the Tuk Tuks you use are legitimate.

From the movement we booked the place, They provided us with a friendly service and welcomed us. The calm environment and comfortable room facilities got my vacation fulfilled. Ayya and akka was very friendly and provided everything we want. And if you visit the place do not forget to enjoy their delicious cup of tea ☕. That was another level and you will miss it forever. Hope visit 'The Nest' soon to enjoy another lovely vacation ❤️

Really friendly and down to earth family. Homestay feel.

The room was very hot and the mattress was very thin. Not a good nights sleep for us. But we did enjoy the place, family, food and friendliness - also good price.

Nice place to stay, the room has everything you need. Great hospitality.

A very warm family and a beautiful room. A cute location where you can meet all your needs

Everything is ok

Room was clean ,manager and his wife were good and they could speak English good and manager help me for address to go to colombo

I stay there 2 nights and for second night I change my room ,because in the first day my room don't have any view to garden or green area ,but my room in second time was too too too hot and I couldn't sleep but I had view in this room

Really nice owner and their children are very cute and kind. Good breakfast. Room clean and spacious. Thank you for your hospitality

Nice family, very quiet area, good WIFi. Totally recommend!

Near to the beach. The room was clean and comfortable, the WiFi worked just perfectly. The family is really welcoming and friendly. It was extremely convenient to book a safari through them, which was well organised and great value for money;)

The check in time differed from the indicated on booking (I was able to check in only around 5 pm, which wasn’t great after the long journey)

Everything was very good from the size of the room to the home cooked meals

Nothing everything as per the tin.

The hosts are a loverly couple who help with any problems you may incur.

Just a little off the beaten track but I'm sure I would have gotten use to it if I had have stayed a little bit longer

Very friendly family running the place. Good breakfast and they can help you organise things in the area on request.

For me the bed was a bit small (185), and the location is a bit off center but fine if you already have transport or something.

What a wonderful, open minded & kind hearted family!! The room I stayed in was very spacious & clean. You can reach the town & beaches within 15-20 minutes by walking. I definitely recommend staying here!

Nothing

❤️❤️❤️Very very clean and spacious, also in a safe location I enjoyed the family being so welcoming and caring. Ignore the other reviews about the dogs as there is an alternative route to avoid them. The family was also very good at making me aware of this.

Nothing.

Nothing in middle of no where very dangerous place with dogs in area aggressive .. wanted to attack you . Be carful

Nothing ripped me of with laundry charged me way to much

Clean and big room Very nice owners Good breakfast We feel good

100%

100%

This has been the most beautiful loving family! The breakfast was also very nice. Definitely recommend staying here!

- Warm and welcoming hosts - Nice and clean room - Good WiFi - Space for parking - Quiet and cozy neighbourhood

The person who owned the property is really friendly and he will give you the best service

The family was super friendly and the breakfast and dinner was very good. Everything was clean and tidy. We enjoyed our stay very much

The only small downside I can think of is that there are dogs on the way to the house. They will run out on the street and bark at you. This shouldn't be a problem if you are not afraid of dogs.

The staff were absolutely amazing - so friendly and helpful. We loved our stay here and would highly recommend. The breakfast they provide is also 10/10.

N/A

Fairly close to the center of Tangalle. The family is super nice and helpful, we rented their scooter and the daughter speaks good English and made us feel at home since the arrival. We had dinner and breakfast there, the food was amazing!

Not very clean, they have a serious problem with ants and with humidity.

Friendly and good size room, private toilet

Room smell of humidity and not a sheet to cover yourself

Great homestay, with everything you need. We felt very comfortable, the host and his family are lovely and welcoming! The size of the room is perfect and the facilities a dream. Definitely come here again!

Great AC and fan in the room, attentive nice host who we were able to rent a scooter off to explore the local beaches.

The owner and the family are absolutely warm-hearted. They are very caring and always listen to your matters. Asking you if everything is alright or if they could do anything for you. Absolutely recommended for people who are looking for a calm, local and peaceful place!

- Really lovely family of Host - was a pleasure to meet them; - A great huge breakfast -> best honey&coconut pancakes we have eaten in Sri Lanka!! - good service to price rate. - we had some additional help of host to get to the hotel - thank you for that! - good spot to be close to the beaches and still not so far from bus stops (we went by walk from and to bus stop)

The Host Udith and his family is superb.thy went extra mile to make our stay enjoyable and comfortable.highly recommended .going to visit again👍

Nothing such

Must stay in Tangalle! The owners were so warming and have the sweetest little girl. The room was big and spacious with great wifi and a huge bed. Walking distance to the beach and the town. They offer meals and scooter rentals too and always checked in on us regarding our stay. 10/10 lovely quiet place with great owners.

Nothing

the family who ran it were very friendly and even dropped me to the bus stop. it is very cheap. was nice that there was a mosquito net.

the area it is located in has multiple very aggressive stray dogs roaming around, i have been traveling for over a year and have never been remotely scared of any dogs until walking to this homestay. I would recommend staying somewhere else closer to the main town. my room was infested with ants, they were everywhere even in the bed. my bags and clothing were covered in ants when I left.

My favorite guest house since I came here. Uditha speaks well English so we can have deep discussions about the culture, traditions, etc. They have other guest houses around and project to upgrade them for more confort. Very worth it for the price.

Careful the house bit hard to find, do not hesitate to contact Uditha by message he will be very reactive, and pleased to help you !

Amazing host, so friendly and helpful

Nice big room, helpful host. Very good WiFi(despite the listing saying there wasn't any).

The neighbourhood dogs. Laundry was quite expensive.

Everything was perfect. The owners, a young family, are extremely friendly and nice. The place is really clean and they provide you of towel and soap. WiFi works really good. The bed is really comfortable and the room spacious, as well it is the washroom. There is a dry clothes area outside. I stayed for 2 days but I really would have liked to stay for more.

the room was really nice and clean, the owners were really kind, sri lanka breakfast was perfect, 100% I can recommend

Super friendly family. Room very clean. Worth this price.

Very nice family welcoming me. If you follow the directions to go to the beach, there's one beach shack on a secluded beach which is really awesome!

The hosts are so friendly and welcoming ! They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and also cooked an amazing traditional sri lankan breakfast! Couldn't recommend enough

Very beautiful smiling and caring family Felt like home and being part of it Extremely helpful and caring I highly recommand
